Creator Joss Whedon WILL NOT BE INVOLVED!!

| Sarah Michelle Gellar Played Buffy On TV |
Charles Roven Steve Alexander Doug Davison and Roy Lee (The Ring, How to Train Your Dragon, The Departed) will produce.
Whit Anderson is writing the script.--Who?....
“Whit approached us with an exciting idea about how to update Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” said Roven. “There is an active fan base eagerly awaiting this character’s return to the big screen. We’re thrilled to team up with Doug Davison and Roy Lee on a re-imagining of Buffy and the world she inhabits. Details of the film are being kept under wraps, but I can say while this is not your high school Buffy, she’ll be just as witty, tough, and sexy as we all remember her to be.”
Yeah the "active fan base" of which I count myself wants Whedon on board!
The L.A. Times spoke with Anderson and this her take on the character:of Buffy:
"The deep struggle she had with duty and destiny, that tug between what you’re supposed to be doing and what you want to be doing. The fate of the world is on her shoulders but some days she wakes up and she just doesn’t want to do it. And are we doomed and destined to love someone? That conflict was very interesting to me. Those are the things I loved about her and her world. She also represents — like all the heroes — something empowering for us. "
I have been against the idea since it was first brought up and said...
A Buffy film without Whedon is like a Star Wars without George Lucas...Having a whole new mythology only serves to alienate fans....Buffy is not Star Trek of course, but at least that reboot respected much of what has come before and did it every step of the way...
If Joss isn't there on the film neither am I as a supporter....And Stand By Those Statements Today
